This is the final preseason game of the season. It’s the one where everyone who isn’t starting plays, hopes, and prays that don’t get cut, before hoping and praying and they snag one of the final spots on the 53-man roster or make the practice squad the weekend afterwards.

It’s also the one against the Dallas Cowboys. The one that was cancelled last year because of Hurricane Harvey. Yee-haw, it’s back this year. Texas. Amen, brother. Here’s how to catch the game

The Cowboys will cut a whopping 37 players following the game, as they are required by the league to trim their roster to just 53 by Saturday afternoon. So this matchup against the Texans will start and end some NFL careers. This contest is one for all the die-hard fans!

The Dallas Cowboys have a lot of clean-up to do, especially following their abysmal dress rehearsal.

Additionally, and more pressing, is the palpable sense of urgency within the organization following a disappointing 2017 season, where the club finished 9-7 — failing to make the playoffs, but felt oddly like a mild celebration labeled “At Least We Were Above .500”. This was the follow-up to a historic 13-3 record from only one year prior, wherein the Cowboys also landed a first-round playoff bye and home field advantage — all while being led by two rookies in quarterback Dak Prescott and running back Ezekiel Elliott. The team again couldn’t capitalize on their storied season as the demons of 2014 came back to haunt them in the form of the Green Bay Packers and Aaron Rodgers, but the expectations for 2017 were through the shingles.

For all intents and purposes (especially factoring in the intergalactic levels of off-the-field drama by players and owner alike), last season was a throwaway of the highest order. Even the final victory in Week 17 served to do more harm than good, dropping them in the first-round NFL Draft order — and all for the right to say they barely defeated the eventual Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles by a rousing score of 6-0, in which the Cowboys’ offense looked as inept as ever against the Eagles’ non-starters.

It’s time to begin washing the sour taste of 2017 out of their collective mouths, with one final preseason game to determine who’s worthy of surviving the final roster cutdown at the end of August, the pressure’s on for many to improve over the 27-3 bludgeoning at the hands of the Arizona Cardinals. Now 0-3 this August, for those who care about a meaningless record, more important are the third-stringers and bubble players who have no choice but to show up big against the Houston Texans — with nary a starter taking the field.

Dodgers vs Braves :: The Braves called the move precautionary but elected to sit him for the remainder of the series in Washington and both games in Miami. The Dodgers are in the final stop of a three city,

The Dodgers won the first two games of this best-of-five series, and the Braves have yet to score a run in the NLDS. It’s a battle of young arms in this one, as Walker Buehler (2.62 ERA and 4.08 K/BB ratio in 137 1/3 innings) goes for the Dodgers opposite Atlanta’s Sean Newcomb (3.90 ERA, 1.98 K/BB ratio in 164 innings).

History is certainly working against the Braves. Of the 78 teams to be down 0-2 in a best-of-five MLB postseason series, just 10 (12.8 percent) came back to win that series.

Kevin Gausman was expected to take the mound on Sunday for the Atlanta Braves in Game 3 of the NLDS. Now, the Dodgers will face left-hander Sean Newcomb, who gets the start after pitching two innings of relief in Game 1.

Newcomb has faced the Dodgers twice this year, but more notably on July 29, when he was one strike away from no-hitting LA.

He found out today he would be getting the start, but knew it would be a possibility last night. “[Brian Snitker] came up and talked to me on the plane before we took off, let me know that that was a possibility,” Newcomb said. “So kind of get my mind right before I kind of went to bed.”

“We need to win,” he said. “And not that Gausman doesn’t give us that opportunity. We like how Newcomb matches up with them and the success that he’s had against the Dodgers this year.”

“So we’re going to let Newcomb get the thing off the ground. He felt good about it. And I told him that we need you to get this thing off the ground. You don’t need to take a no-hitter into the ninth inning with a strike left or whatever. We just want to get this thing flying and be all hands on deck.”

In Newcomb’s other start versus the Dodgers, he lasted 5 1⁄3 innings. He allowed five runs on seven hits, as well as allowing two homers.

It’s been a rough two months for the 25-year-old. Since August 7, Newcomb owns a 5.68 ERA, while batters are hitting .276.

“Obviously their backs are against the wall, and they feel it’s the best chance to give them a chance to win tomorrow,” said Dodgers manager Dave Roberts. “So he’s had success against us. I feel that just some history and a little bit more familiarity, you know, I don’t know what to expect of his length tomorrow.”

“Obviously it’s contingent upon how he performs. But I like the guys we’re going to run out there.”

Roberts added that the decision hasn’t been made on just how right-handed the Dodgers lineup will be. During the season, Los Angeles went platoon heavy, but that might not be the case Sunday.

“There might be a little bit of a tweak or two because — just appreciating the fact that he pitched a couple days ago, don’t know how long it’s going to go,” said Roberts. “They’ve got Teheran and Gausman in the pen. You just kind of never want to expose yourself to a complete line change.”

Atlanta left-hander Sean Newcomb will start Game 3 of the National League Division Series against the Los Angeles Dodgers with his team on the brink of elimination, the Braves announced Saturday.

Newcomb came within one strike of throwing a no-hitter against the Dodgers at home on July 29.

Atlanta manager Brian Snitker had said Friday he would turn to Kevin Gausman in Game 3, but the Braves, who failed to score a run in losing the opening two games in L.A., instead will go with the 25-year-old Newcomb on Sunday in an attempt to extend their season.

Snitker said he discussed the change with general manager Alex Anthopoulos on the flight home after Atlanta’s 3-0 loss Friday. They agreed on the move Saturday afternoon.

“We need to win,” Snitker said Saturday. “Not that Gausman doesn’t give us that opportunity, we like how Newcomb matches up with them and the success that he’s had against the Dodgers this year.”

Brewers vs Rockies: There are three things the Rockies must do to have a shot at coming back Beating the Brewers talent vs talent is tough enough as it is. he Brewers shut out the Rockies in back-to-back games to start the playoffs, giving them a Here’s what you need to know about Rockies.

The Atlanta Rockies return home and hope to stave off elimination against the Los Angeles Brewers in Game 3 of the NLDS in SunTrust Park.

The Brewers won the first two games of this best-of-five series, and the Rockies have yet to score a run in the NLDS. It’s a battle of young arms in this one, as Walker Buehler (2.62 ERA and 4.08 K/BB ratio in 137 1/3 innings) goes for the Brewers opposite Atlanta’s Sean Newcomb (3.90 ERA, 1.98 K/BB ratio in 164 innings).

History is certainly working against the Rockies. Of the 78 teams to be down 0-2 in a best-of-five MLB postseason series, just 10 (12.8 percent) came back to win that series.

For the first time since Jeff Weaver started Game 1 of the 2009 NLDS, the Los Angeles Brewers opened a postseason series Thursday night and willingly gave the ball to someone other than Clayton Kershaw. Kershaw started Game 1 in eight of the team’s 10 previous postseason series, and the two times he didn’t (2016 NLCS and 2013 NLCS), it was because he pitched in the clinching game of the previous round and was not yet available to start.

Rather than Kershaw, the Brewers gave the ball to Hyun-Jin Ryu in NLDS Game 1 against the Rockies on Thursday. Kershaw will instead start Game 2. Manager Dave Roberts explained the decision to start Ryu in Game 1 against Atlanta came down to maximizing rest.

“I think if you look at each game individually and put as the same importance, which we do, how can you put both of those players in the best position to succeed?” said Roberts. “And we felt that with Clayton getting an extra day and Hyun-Jin getting one extra day as well, as opposed to two, would do that. And so if you look at it that way, Game 1, 2 and 3 are guaranteed. And so to look anything beyond that, I don’t think that we wanted to do that. And so that’s what kind of made our decision.”

The decision could not have worked out better, at least for one day. Ryu started against the Rockies on Thursday night and was masterful, tossing seven shutout innings. Joc Pederson and Max Muncy hit early home runs to give him some breathing room, and Ryu went out and peppered the strike zone the rest of the way. The Brewers went on to win the game 6-0 (box score).

Giants vs Panthers : Through four weeks, I’m not sure anybody expected the Atlanta Falcons and Pittsburgh Steelers to be in the positions they’re in. Both are off to a 1-3 start, and the loser of this game is staring at a 2018 season, once filled with promise, that may not be so promising anymore.

Heinz Field will be rocking as the Falcons and Steelers clash as Week 5 action continues on Sunday afternoon.

The Steelers got some good news, though, as All-Pro running back Le’Veon Bell will report to the team following their Week 7 bye. Still, it might be the case of too little too late. After a tremendous start to the season, second-year running back James Conner has struggled in the past three games, amassing just 97 yards after running for 135 in the opener.

Offensive coordinator Randy Fichtner came out this week and said Conner “probably just needs to do a better job heating up,” meaning Conner needs to be more involved in the gameplan for the Steelers, who despite a terrific tandem at wide receiver in Antonio Brown and Juju Smith-Schuster, have struggled over the past two weeks moving the football down field.

The Ravens are on a roll. They beat the previously undefeated Broncos two weeks ago, then topped hated division rival Steelers 26-14 in Week 4 on Sunday Night Football. They’re tied with the Bengals for first place in the AFC North.

The Browns, meanwhile, were rumored to be ready for a step forward after their awful previous seasons, with No. 1 overall draft pick Baker Mayfield at the helm. So far, however, they haven’t turned that good vibe into a lot of wins. They fell to the Raiders 45-42 in Week 4.

CLEVELAND, Ohio — The Browns are looking for their second win of the season Sunday afternoon and, much like the past three games, weather shouldn’t hinder their chances of victory.

Baltimore Ravens vs. Cleveland Browns, 1 p.m., FirstEnergy Stadium

With the highest percentage of precipitation possibilities Sunday coming before 7 a.m., it should be relatively dry and cool for your tailgate, according to the National Weather Service Cleveland.

Temperatures should hover around 70 degrees from 7 a.m. until noon, and the rain chance drops to 35 percent at 8 a.m., according to the NWS Cleveland.

At kickoff, the temperature should be around 72 degrees with chances of rain again at 35 percent, with cloud coverage over 70 percent. Not much will change during the game, with the temperature hovering around 72 and the rain chance staying at 35 percent.

Mayfield (59.4 completion percentage, 2 TDs, 2 INTs, 81.3 rating) will have to be particularly aware of safety Eric Weddle and linebacker Terrell Suggs, who will go against rookie left tackle Desmond Harrison.

Mayfield doesn’t have a strong enough receiving corps right now to take advantage of his exceptional arm talent. Antonio Callaway (10 catches on 24 targets for 155 yards and a TD) has been struggling early in games, and might have his reps cut on Sunday. Help could be on the way. The Browns will work out former Titans receiver Rishard Matthews on Monday.

John Harbaugh has feasted on the Browns, going 18-2, and Joe Flacco is 17-2.

Flacco is off to a hot start, ranking 14th in the NFL with a 96.9 rating. He’s thrown eight TDs against only two interceptions and is completing 64.3 of his passes. But he’s been sacked more than two times a game, and the Ravens are vulnerable up the middle.

He also holds the ball longer than Derek Carr, so Myles Garrett and company can make things tough on him.

If Garrett can dominate like he did against the Steelers, the Browns have a chance. But Mayfield could struggle against this rookie-destroying Ravens’ D.
